Canine Ear Muffs
Wondering what the adorable pup is wearing on his head, Mutt Muffs! Yes, this Lab mix, Cooper, is flying in a plane wearing muffs to protect his ears. If you’ve ever flown in those small planes, you know the noise is really loud. Well, a dog’s hearing is more sensitive than a humans so you can imagine how loud it is on a plane for a pooch. Cooper used to curl up in a ball while he went on a sky ride, but with the Mutt Muffs he enjoys being in the air and looks out the window.
These Mutt Muffs can be used for hunting, loud sporting events, and police and service dogs can benefit from these ear protectors. During the Fourth of July when all those fireworks are set off, the Mutt Muffs would protect canines from the loud noise! The Mutt Muffs come in five different sizes and cost between $ 52-65 dollars.
Pit Bull, Brian, Needs AÂ Home
Brian’s first two years were very traumatic. His first owners abused him. The foster home he was in the person didn’t show him love, but stabbed him several times. With this introduction to the world, Jeannie Ranalli from the New Haven Animal Shelter worked on Brian’s trust issues. All her work paid off and now Brian is a loyal, lovable and devoted canine companion.
This beautiful, white Pit Bull mix loves to play fetch. Toss a tennis ball and Brian will love to fetch it rather than eat! Brian will do best in a home with no children and a person or couple that will give him the love he deserves. For more information about adopting Brian, visit the New Haven Animal Shelter in Connecticut.

German Shepherd Starved
A three year old German Shepherd was taken to the emergency animal hospital in Garden Grove. The poor, starved pup was a mere 37 pounds, which was half the normal weight a dog his size should be. His owner Kimberly Nizato was arrested for starving the shepherd and the pup had resorted to eating dirt to survive.
The German Shepherd has been recovering well and now weighs 41 pounds. There is still the concern of whether the dog will recover from the damage that was done to his liver and kidneys due to the advanced malnutrition.
A bag of dog food costs less than $ 20. If Nizato couldn’t care for her dog properly, she should have done the responsible thing and found a different home for him.
Open Arms Pound Rescue
Email, an underground railroad and volunteers, who love dogs, are saving many lives. Open Arms Pound Rescue have been transporting 15 dogs per week from shelters where they are scheduled for euthanasia to freedom! The route volunteers, like Bill Bretz, drive are almost the same as the “underground railroad†routes. Almost every weekend, Bretz drives 100 miles from Cincinnati to Columbus saving many pups from death!
Since 2007 Open Arms Pound Rescue, they have been moving dogs to safer and happier environments. They need foster homes and drivers for the many pups they save. Checkout the Open Arms Pound Rescue website and see how you can help.
Kellan’s Lutz PETA Campaign – Adopt Don’t Buy
This is the way to use star power! Kellan Lutz has joined PETA to encourage Twilight fans to rescue a shelter dog rather than buy a purebred pup from a pet store. Lutz is pictured here with his rescued mutt, Kola, who was a frightened canine just waiting for someone to save her from a California animal shelter.
Shelter staff discouraged Lutz from picking Kola as a pet because they claimed she pulled on her leash and therefore not a good pet candidate. Lutz didn’t care. He saw something in the depressed pup’s face that drew him to her. After Kola was taken out of her cage, she gave Lutz a canine hug (putting her head between his legs), and he was convinced that she was the furry companion for him.
PETA stated that there are over 8 million dogs and cats that find themselves in animal shelters every year. Half of these animals get euthanized due to lack of space. Lutz saved one of these animals that face possible death, and he now has a furever best friend!
In Lutz’ PETA campaign, his words to Twilight fans was â€For the fans of Twilight who have so much love for the books, these characters give that love to a pet if you don’t have one… Twilighters if you can, do adopt a pet!â€

The ASPCA was founded in 1866 by Henry Bergh, who believed animals should be treated with kind and respectful treatment. Bergh believed laws should be created to protect our four-legged friends. They were the first humane organization, who was granted legal authority to investigate and make arrests for crimes against animals. Programs available at the ASPCA are a poison control center, animal behavior program, animal hospital, mobile spay/neuter clinics and pet loss support services.
